Women Rowing North : Navigating Life's Currents and Flourishing As We Age Hardback
by Mary Pipher
Hardback
Description
The New York Times bestseller - a guide to wisdom, authenticity and bliss for women as they age. Women growing older contend with ageism, misogyny and loss.
Yet as Mary Pipher shows, most older women are deeply happy and filled with gratitude for the gifts of life.
Their struggles help them grow into the authentic, empathetic and wise people they have always wanted to be. In Women Rowing North, Pipher offers a timely examination of the cultural and developmental issues women face as they age.
Drawing on her own experience as daughter, sister, mother, grandmother, caregiver, clinical psychologist and cultural anthropologist, she explores ways women can cultivate resilient responses to the challenges they face. 'If we can keep our wits about us, think clearly and manage our emotions skillfully,' Pipher writes, 'we will experience a joyous time of our lives.
If we have planned carefully and packed properly, if we have good maps and guides, the journey can be transcendent.'
